NOTES.

Oh! my, Oh! my; Is there any hahn
in Gilead?
The sooner rule is strictly enforced,
the better.
Nichols fielding captured Columbus.
San. my is a good ball player. CrOgan also
made n good impression.
There were many sad faces aud sore
hearts about town last night, when the
news was received from Columbus.
Reagan is said to be Columbus weakest
pitcher. The Wheeling team made SIX
base hits. Three and three make only sin,
according 10 the rule.
The Columbus team seized the OppOrtu'
nifty to get revenge on Dunn for the signal
defeat they received ut his hands last Mon
day and they improved it. Fourteen base
hits and fifteen flies to outielders is pretty
hard hitting.
There is a screw leOse somewhere and II
cannot be frightened mp too soon. RumorS
were rife last night which were not ut all
complimentary To some Of the Wheeling
nine. The men receive their salaries tC
play base ball as well rs they know how,
1t is a gross breach of contract to c0ntin
ually violate The rules, and the ofienS'
should he punished without mercy. We
have first class team here, as they them
selves have abantantly demonstrated, ant
it is a shame for them 70 drop game:

The Fourth Street Lyceum.

There was another large audience at the
Fourth Street NJ. +. Church last evening
The lecture WAS upon the subject of As
syrian discoveries and brought out by de
scriptiOn and drawings the wonderful
features of this strange development of
historical research. Nothing in modern
study is more marvellous than the bringing
to light of the lost Empires, literature and
arts Of the East, by digging into the I'M
promising soil of the TgriS and Euphrates
valleys. There were very interesting lit
erary features following the lecture. Dr..
Jepson gave an interesting talk upon the
Lake region of England and WOrdworth's
home, drawn from personal travel and H.
Illustrated by a map OF the region. Mr.. At
kinSOn read a most charming and instruct
i've paper on Wordsworth. He analy zed
with great skill the poets power and set
forth in most attractive form the poet S
L,auties. Mrs. Brown read to everybody
delight 1.-THE Cuckoo and The Daisy. "
The musical programme was fine. Mrs.
Noble, of Pittsburs, and her daughter
favored the audience with vocal and instru-
mental solos, which were highly apprecia-
ted, Mr.. Freese's violin solo and the
vocal duet o. Miss Land and Mr.. Billiard
were delightful.
Next Thursday evening, amer the lee
ture, literary entertainment, having
Longfellow for its subject, will be given
under the direction Of Mr.. c. /. Morrison.

A UEINOUS CRIME.

william Hill Attempts u Criminal Assault
on u Little Girl.
William Hill, u colored Whitewater,
was committed to Jail at half-past seven
o'clock last evening, in default of five
thousand dollars bail, TO await m examin-
alton at p. m. today, on the very serious
charge of attempting 10 outrage three
year-old girl. The victim of Hills attack
is the daughter of Mr.. Philip Roth, black
smith working at the Belmont mill, and
residing with his family at No
1909 Jacob street. Hill had been
engaged 70 do some whitewashng in the
house, the upper rooms of which are occu-
pied by Mr.. Roth, and Mrs. Roth left him
mp there with her children just before six
o'clock, while she went to the kitchen, in
the rear of the lower story, to prepare sup
per. During her absence Hill, according
to the story narrated last night by Mr.
Roth, put all the children out Of the room
but the little girl, Mary, and then threw
her upon lounge while he proceeded TO
disarrange his clothing. While thus en-
gagged Mrs. Strobe, who occupies the
lower portion OF the house. went
up stairs to see Mrs. Roth, and opening the
door, saw what was going on. She at once
called to Mrs. Roth, who ran up stairs, but
by this time Hill had left the child, grab
bed up his bucket, and ran down to the
ground, where, after abusing the two women
Tor few moments, he left
In a very short time Mr.. Roth came
home from work, and was at once acquaint-
ed with what had TRANSFERRED. He snatched
up his coat, which he had removed, and
ran after Officer Stevens, TO whom he told
the story. Mr.. Roth and the officer
then hurried to the Office OF Justice Davis,
where warrant was procured, and Officer
Stevens started for the Second ward, where
Hill lived. Officer Dunlap had heard Of the
case, however, and had already proceeded
to Paul's row, in Alley and secured Hill. |
The two officers had their man at the
Justices Office in short order, and within
two hours after he had made his outrage
Gus assault he was in Jail.
The details Of Hills alleged crime, ~
narrated by Mr.. Roth, are most disgusting,
and their recital aroused great feeling
against the prisoner. Last night Dr.
Schwinn attended the little girl, and said
she was not hurt. Hill is well known TO the
police, and the Second ward officers give
him q bad reputation. His marriage 10
his present wife, two years ago, about ten
days after the death Of the wOmau's first
husband, will be readily recalled by many.
He served term in Jail recently.
